October 7 2010

A long weekend, four days off!

What am I to do?

I think I’ll start by reading a few blogs, and I got no further than Birding Sometimes. John has been for the Woodchat Shrike at Hartlepool and has some nice pictures so that became today’s plan.

After all of a nano-second the bird was on view from the car before I had turned the engine off. So, ok, I’ll give this a try…

Shy, retiring & elusive it was not!

I need Woodchat in Northumberland, the last one, I was away, so I'm in need.

The header is the sign at Harpers Heugh, I think it looks better with my graffiti
